Yk. Sharma et N. Subramanian, COMPARATIVE-STUDIES ON FUNCTIONAL-PROPERTIES OF SOYMEALS FROM KALITURAND BRAGG VARIETIES, Journal of Food Science and Technology, 31(1), 1994, pp. 27-31
'Kalitur' (black) soybean variety was evaluated and compared with 'Bra
gg' variety for the functional properties of their meals. Water absorp
tion capacities were 217 and 237 g/100 g of 'Kalitur' meal proteins an
d its heat processed meal, respectively. Fat absorption capacities wer
e 112 and 141 g oil/100 g 'Kalitur' and its heat processed meal, respe
ctively. Foaming and emulsification capacities were minimum at pH 4.5
and higher acidic pH. Foam stability increased with increase in concen
tration upto 0.4 M NaCl and then started decreasing. The data indicate
high potential of 'Kalitur' meal protein for application in food syst
em.
